Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Sep 07, 2011 5:05 am Has anyone built with Selkirk Blue Rain bricks? We have picked a double fronted facade with part render and mouldings and I am having some troubles with colours. here is what we have come up with so far Brick: Selkirk blue rain with off white mortar in a flush finish Roof: Colorbond monument Guttering: colorbond monument Fascia: ?colorbond Dune or Monument Downpipes: ? Colorbond Dune or Monument Garage door: slimline sectional overhead door in Caoba Dawn Timber windows and front door in merbu stain Moulding Colour: Colorbond Dune Render Colour: unsure I am stuck on a render colour and am unsure whether to go dark or light as our bricks and roof are dark. I am open to additional suggestions regarding colours if anyone has any. I will attempt to download a picture of the facade we are using Re: Facade colour selections with Selkirk Blue Rain Bricks 3Sep 07, 2011 7:11 pm It is like Henleys Edison Facade but double fronted like Metricons Californian Facade which is featured on the Byron. I am unsure of how to download pictures onto this forum page sorry. We are having render and a strip of moulding which spans from ground level 12 Brick spaces up and having exposed brick the remainer of the front facade. Re: Facade colour selections with Selkirk Blue Rain Bricks 4Sep 07, 2011 8:21 pm Ok hmmm... I would tend to go with a darker render to match the bricks. If the moulding is in dune, then the lower half has to be similar. But that would make the lower half lighter than the top half which I think might look odd... (personal preference here). Whilst others might like that look of the Met home, I prefer the Edison. Re: Facade colour selections with Selkirk Blue Rain Bricks 5Sep 08, 2011 5:30 pm I was thinking urban grey which I believe is a wattyl colour and the moulding (as displayed in the edison facade in the dune. I was hoping that the dune on the moulding would blend with the dune on the fascia while also tying in with the mortar and the urban grey would match the brickwork. What are your thoughts? How much are you ahead in payments compared to where the build is at? Have you fully drawn down the loan? 5 11916 Thank you @. Tried to play with the facade models but the exact colour is not matching up. 2 3267 Iām just in the process of replacing 2 stud walls that have been severely damaged by termites and am planning to use h2 blue pine. I just wanted to if anyone can advise… 0 52856 |
